I do recommend that patients keep a small homeopathic remedy kit for emergencies at hand, especially for families with children.

Having a homeopathic remedy kit at hand can save time. You will be in a position to take remedies immediately, according to the instructions of your homeopath or the emergency homeopath in charge, and it is handy at weekends or at night, when shops are closed. Please click here for more information where and what to buy.

A word of caution – self prescribing can cause problems. Although there are many handbooks on homeopathy available – for a small choice see here – training in the use of homeopathic remedies is advisable! There are reasons why professional homeopaths require several years of education and training.

Acute remedies may interfere with ongoing homeopathic treatment for chronic ailments. Often your chronic remedy can help you in acute ailments. Therefore do contact me as soon as possible, if you feel the need to take an acute remedy.

For acute problems during the evening or at weekends you can either try to contact me or call the homeopathic weekend service in Basel (more informations here).
